Friday Marks 75 Years Of East LA Classic
LOS ANGELES (CBS) ―
As mentioned earlier here in the
HS blog, we did our
HS Preview Show from East LA College. Wednesday, they held the press conference for the 75th edition of the East LA Classic.
We had a great time out there. I learned this rivalry isn't bitter like some others we are accustomed to.
Instead, its more about uniting the community and everyone coming together and enjoying the experience.
Its the homecoming game for both schools each year and the turnout is tremendous.
Of course, each team wants to win but Garfield principal Michael Summe summed it up best when he said: its like playing against your brother, of course you try your hardest to beat him but at the end of the day, its still your brother and you love him dearly.
It should be an exciting game come Friday. To view the show, click
